Heritage ~ Macro Monday

Most of the orange jessamine flowers have been fall since this morning and the rain in the noon has almost completely aborted them.

After the fragrant flowers fall, what remains is the fruits. Waiting for it to ripe, then fall to continue the beauty and fragrance. Indeed, not all fruits can mature and continue inheritance because various events can be different for each fruit or even the tree.

Nature works with a similar system for all living things that can reproduce, just like humans. What distinguishes it is a choice. Plants cannot choose to flower or not. As long as the environment is appropriate, it will only comply with the system and rules, while humans can decide to flower and bear fruit or not, to pass on the beauty and fragrance through their offspring or not. However, the special thing is that humans can continue to inherit with or without their own fruit. Maybe that inheritance can be handed over through family, relatives, nation or history. Whatever has happened and will happen in the future, all things about inheritance for beauty and fragrance are merely choices.

  • Do you have something important and valuable to inherit?

  1. Good point, I know some things are handed down from members of my family. Recipes, plants or just small ornaments and the family tree.
    I have a few plants handed down from Mum.
    Odd small things that remind me of them.

  2. This is a reflective post. I’ve gained insight from the analogy you’ve written on bearing fruit: bitter fruit, sour, or honey sweet fruit—of the spirit— “Love, joy peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control.”

    Making a difference in this world of ours. Thank you. 🙂

  3. Beautiful fruit I am not familiar with and as always you made an excellent point. Funny how closely our lives follow with nature, on so many levels.

    • The fruit size is less than 1cm but the tree can be up to 8m in size. Its flowers are what I’ve posted yesterday.
      Well, we are indeed part of nature, so there are always similarities between our lives and other life in nature.
